PIXEL MAPPING

Defective pixels may appear on the image sensor of digital cameras
over time. The camera compensates for these defective pixels auto-
matically by calculating the data captured by other pixels surround-
ing defective ones. This feature requires a process known as "pixel
mapping" to recognize and register defective pixels. The camera
does this automatically every two weeks. The function can also be
accessed manually if needed.
